Muay Thai Heavy Bag Drill – Keeping Your Chin Tucked

TRY THIS HEAVY BAG DRILL TO PRACTICE GOOD CHIN DEFENSE

By Sean Fagan

This was one of the first heavy bag drills I did when I started boxing when I was younger. I learned really quick that I need to keep my chin tucked, especially if I wanted to make sure I didn’t lose any money! You’ll get what I mean once you watch the video of this type of Muay Thai heavy bag drill:

See what I mean? There’s much more on the line now when you hit the heavy bag if you are holding money underneath your chin.

Of course, although using money as the tool for this drill can be highly motivated, if you’re a broke joke like myself and can’t afford to put some bills underneath your chin, you can also use a tennis ball or rubber ball of some sort.
